Sheilas is an accommodating and conversational hostess. All was just as promised. Our favorite part of staying with her was reading the paper on her lovely screened porch surrounded by gardens, and a just-right breakfast to start the day.

Just had a great stay with Shelia. I was in Chapel Hill to help my students move. Shelia has a lovely home that is in a nice neighborhood very close to campus. She was very easy going and gave me a key so I could come and go at my leisure. Her home is immaculate with a nice outdoor area also. I will definitely return!

My husband and I enjoyed three days in Sheila's charming home. She is warm, welcoming and helpful host, working to meet all our needs.
The house is located in a quiet neighborhood very close to the UNC campus. It is neat,well kept and met our expectations. We were completely comfortable in every respect. A screened porch off the living room quickly became our favorite place to begin each day, We enjoyed having coffee and reading the newspaper while a host of birds serenaded in the background. Delightful! We highly recommend.

Sheila was a fantastic and generous hostess and her home was a lovely retreat. We were visiting UNC for a conference and found it easy to shlep from this lovely neighborhood to campus on a local free bus. There are shops and restaurants in easy walking distance and a beautiful forested neighborhood to explore on foot.
Sheila was very helpful and made us feel at home in her perfectly clean and beautiful home.

This was a wonderful place to stay in Chapel Hill. Sheila was very welcoming and helpful offering restaurant and other suggestions. Very nice home--clean, quiet, relaxing. Easy walk or (free) bus to UNC campus.

Sheila was a marvelous host, very helpful host! I liked very much the good conversations. The house is perfectly located to the campus in a very nice woody neighborhood. The room is large with very good beds. I really felt at home over there.

I stayed here for a week in October 2013, while attending a conference at UNC. Not enough stars for this: Sheila is a remarkable host in all respects, and her house is beautiful. I cannot recommend this highly enough. It was frankly a privilege to meet Sheila and stay in her home.

Sheila is a very friendly host. The place is spacious, clean and tasteful. She surrounds herself with beautiful things, often from travels. She knows a lot about the surroundings and tells vividly about it. The stay was short but nice.
